How important is it to avoid the big O?

**wishing on a star** · May 24th, 2011, 02:19 PM

I have been thinking about this and just wandered how important you think it is to avoid having an orgasm when ttc a girl. If you do all other sway factors could this really change the outcome just by having an orgasm?
Any help really appreciated

I have two daughters, and I didn't sway for either, but I can tell you I ALWAYS have a big o when my husband and I DTD. HTH!

I'd say it's quite important to avoid it
a big O sucks the swimmers up from near the cervix and into the uterus and can even give them a nudge towards the fallopian tubes, as well as changing pH and stuff in there
if you want to sway girl, the advice is always to DTD shallow so the big O would completely go against this

As I recall, I deliberately had a big O with my first, used robitussin and everything, and she was a girl, and with my second I believe I also had big O, a boy, and not with my 3rd, (a girl) or 4th (a boy). SO I too am left wondering if it makes any difference!

I didnt have a big O with my first 2 and they were both boys but for some reason this time round i couldnt help myself and accidentley did TMI SORRY!! Im really worried now that because of this it will result in a boy even though it was 2 days before ovulation and i did all other sway factors to the MAX!! Ive got to stop analysising my sway and just wait for the outcome, glad to see that there have been little girls born after having big O lol. Anyone else have big O and ended up with a girl?

I had big O with all 3 boys. Also lots of EWCM. This time no big O for me, although that was sooooo hard to do!!! I'm not sure if it makes loads of difference. I was just trying to do whatever I could to help my chances!! Hope you get the girl you want.

We did sway. Initially I was quite strict with the diet, but since it took a while to conceive I made some changes. I am naturally thin and the diet made me quite underweight and unwell. So I adapted it a bit, allowing myself a few more calories, but ensured I had low salt and potassium and calcium rich. No caffiene.
I took calcium, magnesium, folate, cranberry and vit B6 supplements and the month we conceived I had tried to eat a lot of acidifying foods too as my pH was persistently around 6. I got it down to 5.
We BD frequently from about CD10 to 2-3 days before O. No big O, missionary position, sylk as lube. I was hoping to use replens, but messed up my online order and it never came in time. No jump and dump either as we seemed to be having trouble conceiving.
Didn't do a great deal for ions, except lots of walking in fresh air, was in new moon phase (just) and fan on laptop.
I think that is all. I used to get tons of EWCM, but got it down to next to nothing, just a bit as I ovulated. Our cut off was 2 and a half days on that cycle.
